chapter two

***

So something definitely happened in Thailand.

Rosé is certain.

Whatever that something is though, she'll have to resort to guessing.

The possibilities are endless and Rosé needs some concrete evidence to back her theory. She'll have a lot to work around with, careful not to act questionably shady. This makes her hypersensitive and super alert to every interaction between them, not to the extent that she's trying to insinuate something about them.

Just enough for her to be able to figure out the mysterious Thailand trip.

And it doesn't help Rosé's case that Jennie is totally normal and seemingly unbothered.

That makes Lisa the sole person of interest here, so maybe she's got these personal issues she can't share yet and Rosé is unnecessarily reading into it too much.

Lisa, by some miracle, was able to revert to her regular self (as far as regular goes for Lisa) during their stay at the Blackpink House. She's still weird, sure, but none of that fruit-launching and airplane-crashing kind of weird (sidenote: Jisoo has banned her from going anywhere near their fruit basket). Rosé supposes its due to the presence of the cameras, being under surveillance for a hundred days, that Lisa had trained herself to be extra mindful with what she does.

That meant Blackpink House had become uneventful much to Rosé's dismay.

Rosé has this thought.

Ever since they've been trainees, Rosé has thought of how inexplicably different Jennie and Lisa's friendship were from how they treat everyone else. It's the type that would get people to question the nature of it all, whether it's surpassing borderline platonic or just two chummy buds who have zero disregard for trivial things such as public skinship and whatnot. Rosé is aware how friends can go overboard in terms of friendly touches which could be misunderstood from other people's perspective.

So there's probably nothing suspicious going on between them.

Or is there?

Rosé doesn't want to entertain that, her business or not, she feels she's betraying them in some sort way.

As she's stated, she's not insinuating anything.

Although, it's difficult not to when they give you reasons to do so.

"Aww, happy anniversary you guys!"

The girls are lounging in their living room one lazy night, and they're sat on the couch with Rosé in one end, next to Jisoo who also sits next to Jennie, then Lisa beside her on the other end. Jisoo has utilized her bartending skills (no one knew where she'd learn it; another mystery to solve later) and whips out fancy fruity alcoholic cocktails which Rosé downs in one go.

Thank God for her high level of tolerance or they would have to peel her off the couch.

Not that there were that much liquor to begin with.
